This is incredible. “When I left your care.” Not, “when I left school.” School is about forming relationships. We love and nurture the pupils “in our care.” We only want the best for them. This is heart warming.

Couldn’t be a more fitting tribute to the educators who helped transform my life from gang member to author and PhD student on World Teachers Day. Thank you for everything… been a privilege to follow in their big footsteps in schools this last year. #TeachersDay #StreetGangs

@fidelmacook I remember asking my beloved granny, already in her 90s and fading, having lived a full and happy life, if she could have anything at that moment what would she ask for, and she replied, “just one more day.” Your column never disappoints.

End of term & end of an era. Today we said the fondest of farewells to @WTACRaymond Mr Soltysek who brings his 45 year teaching career to a close today. It has been an immense privilege to work with him sharing in his experience & wisdom. A hugely popular figure @FernhillSchool

So excited to be attending rehearsals @st_columbkille ahead of our Golden Jubilee Mass on Thursday at 7pm. The children are sounding fantastic. Truly heartwarming to hear children’s voices raised in song once again. #FiftyYearsOfFamily #TheGiftOfMusic
